Ethiopia Steps Up Accusations Against Sudan and Eritrea as Fighting Widens

Fighting between the Ethiopian army and the Alliance of Ethiopian Peoples’ Forces for Survival is spreading across multiple fronts in northern Ethiopia, amid government accusations of interference by Sudan and Eritrea.

The widening clashes place the conflict on more than one northern front, as Ethiopian forces confront the alliance.

The Ethiopian government has accused both neighbouring countries of intervening in the conflict. The accusations mark a sharpening of its rhetoric towards Khartoum and Asmara as the fighting expands.

The available information does not detail the alleged intervention or provide evidence supporting the accusations. It also gives no account of responses from Sudan or Eritrea.
